Is involuntary hypnotism a physical assault on your senses?

There are many ways to control the minds of other people. Hypnotism as a means of mind control requires a willingness to participate. It requires the subject to trust and give in to the hypnotiser, or tape recording, in order to allow the mind control to take effect.
I do not believe there is such a thing as involuntary hypnotism. It must be given another name to explain that kind of mind control.
Involuntary mind control, where you reject and fight the control, is a mental attack on your senses. It is not very physical, but can involve physical actions.
Such methods are well documented in captive interview techniques and evasion for the SAS and other elite troops.
Sleep deprivation, torture, interrogation, deprivation, humiliation, followed by good cop bad cop routines and intense emotional blackmail and misbehaviour. Certain drug types can also induce a level of involuntary mind control . All of these factors can cause your opinion or you mind to be abused. If you fight it without ever experiencing this type of mental attack before, you might have a breakdown eventually. If you have experienced it before, you can learn deal with it both physically and mentally.

There is no such thing as involuntary hypnotism. A client will only be hypnotised if there unconcious mind allows that to happen. Everyone can be hypnotised and it happens to people all throughout the day. for instance when you are at work and you are staring at the computer screen, out the window or at some object, you then begin to drift into a trance.
You can be hypnotised when you are reading a really good book.
I know you are probably wondering, and its a good thing to wonder, now, the learnings of which are all coming together, to make you feel more empowered about the state of, in trance, like you may have experienced, or indeed you may not have experienced, however if you could imagine for a moment what it would be like to be hypnotised......
I hope this helps.
best Wishes

I'm sure it can be done. I once watched a biography on a real-life lawyer who helps children who have been molested. She was having dreams about a baby being hurt, and after her husband left her, she had gotten counseling, and got hypnotized. She found out she was having nightmares because she was molested by her father. It took hypnosis for her to find out about this.
So, a person can be hypnotized. But I'm sure it takes SOOOO much dough, especially if a person's doing it to sort out their traumas.

I can not be hypnotized. I was open to it and several people have tried...it just doesn't work on me.
I would think that having it done involuntarily would be somewhat of an assault.

Only the weak minded can be hypnotised without their knowledge. I suppose it would be an assault, but you shouldn't be such a limp brain

Lack of alertness and awareness is directly proportional to vulnerability to getting hypnotised !
